Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is believed to be reigniting his interest in £13.5 million rated Benfica winger Simao Sabrosa.
Benitez almost signed Sabrosa last summer before the deal broke down at the last minute and The Mirror are now reporting that Benitez will once again attempt to sign the Portuguese winger.
Sabrosa only recently signed a new deal at Benfica committing himself to the club until 2011, however as part of the deal the winger insisted on having a £13.5 million release clause - a clause that Benitez is now aiming to trigger in the hope he can convince the Portuguese International to join the Liverpool revolution.

yes thats him,we nearly signed him a while ago for £9m but it all fell through when at the last minute benfica decided they wanted £11m and Rafa did'nt have the funds to go that high.

oh please dont... how many times do i have to say that we need a winger with imagination.. a winger that is very unpredictable, that can either shoot or cross with the same ease...

www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFmYhZW63qIhave a look of that.. the ball seems to glue on his foot... wen we played porto did u see wat he done ? he was on the right wing with that young blond lad we sold zak was his first name i remember and he played a very fast dummy with 2 legs and went past him, had a shot with the outside of his foot and it hit the crossbar and carra cleared.. he's the winger for us no sweat!!!! he can kill teams off with his pace power he can run back and help the defence has stamina and towards the end of the game no one wud be able to keep up with him
